Khan Academy has had an extensive section covering cryptography for a while and might be worth a look before diving right into Satoshi's Bitcoin paper.

Oh, hey - and guess what? https://www.khanacademy.org/science/core-finance/money-and-banking/bitcoin/v/bitcoin-what-is-it

Fwiw.  :)

I'm currently going through the coursera cryptography course. Here's the link in case anyone is interested:
